The quarterback and co-captain of the varsity football team at West Bridgewater Middle-Senior High School will be summoned to court to face possible charges after a serious crash on Forest Street, police said.

Police said Christopher Cormier, 17, of 155 Forest St., West Bridgewater, was driving the car involved in a crash that injured three teenagers, including the driver. Police said alcohol may have contributed to the Friday night crash, The Enterprise reported.

A total of six teens from West Bridgewater and Bridgewater -- ages 15 to 17 -- were inside the car when it crashed, police said.

Cormier suffered a head injury and was flown to a Boston hospital. He was released on Saturday, police said.

Details about the 11:26 p.m. crash, in a wooded area off Forest Street, were not available on Wednesday.

In an e-mail to The Enterprise Wednesday morning, police Lt. Victor Flaherty identified Cormier as the driver but gave no information on what charges he would face. He also did not provide details on what happened during the crash, or the names of the other people injured in the accident.

“The investigation is now complete, and a complaint will be filed in Brockton District Court this week,” Flaherty wrote.

Flaherty did not immediately return calls for comment on Wednesday.

Police had not completed the crash report by Monday.

“It appears (alcohol) could be a contributing factor,” Flaherty said Monday.

Bodwell and school superintendent Patricia Oakley could not be reached for comment Wednesday morning.

Police and fire crews responded to Forest Street after receiving a call at 11:26 p.m. Friday reporting a car crash with injuries. Emergency crews used the Jaws of Life extrication tool to remove crash victims from the car, said Fire Lt. Jim Rocha.

A female passenger suffered a broken ankle and was sent to a local hospital, and then transferred to a Boston hospital, where she remained Monday. Another passenger was released after treatment at a local hospital for a head injury. The parents of the uninjured teens picked them up at the accident scene.

The BCI unit of the Plymouth County Sheriff’s Department responded, as did a K9 unit. An ambulance and engine company 1 responded, and emergency crews were on scene until 1:10 a.m. Saturday, Rocha said.
